From the Back Cover
With objects from art, design, fashion and natural science, Flowers offers a fascinating, elaborately staged tour through the cultural history of flowers from antiquity to the present day.Fragile and powerful, flowers speak a universal language that transcends centuries and cultures. They narrate emotions, celebrate beauty, silently protest, and preserve age-old tales. It is precisely to them that the Chiostro del Bramante in Rome dedicates an extraordinary exhibition.'Flowers are much more than simple decorative elements,' explains Natalia de Marco, Artistic Director of the Chiostro del Bramante. 'They act as universal symbols, epitomising every aspect of life: from resilience to spirituality, from love to conflict, from science to ecology.' This sensory adventure comes to life in an exhibition that combines works from the past and the present, offering the public an unprecedented interpretation of the role flowers have played in the evolution of our history and society.

Cartonato. Condition: new. Roma, Chiostro del Bramante, 14 febbraio - 14 settembre 2025. A cura di Suzanne Landau e Franziska Stöhr. Testo Italiano e Inglese. Cinisello Balsamo, 2025; cartonato, pp. 192, 100 ill. col., cm 24x31. Il volume esplora il potere simbolico e la bellezza dei fiori nel corso dei secoli, offrendo una panoramica che interessa arte, scienza, letteratura e costume, dal 1600 ai giorni nostri. Attraverso un'attenta selezione di opere d'arte, installazioni e oggetti storici, il volume rivela come i fiori siano stati costantemente utilizzati come simboli di potere, bellezza, fragilità e trasformazione. Un tema che attinge al legame millenario tra uomo e natura, rivelando come i fiori siano stati fonte d'ispirazione per artisti, scienziati e pensatori di ogni epoca. Le opere documentate, provenienti da collezioni internazionali, sono a firma di artisti tra i quali si ricordano Jan Brueghel il Giovane, Abraham Mignon, Barbara Regina Dietzsch, Lawrence Alma-Tadema, Hannah Höch, Andreas Gursky, Miguel Chevalier, Ann Carrington, Patricia Kaersenhout, Kehinde Wiley, DRIFT e molti altri. Il volume invita infine a riflettere su come i fiori rappresentino una componente fragile ma indispensabile del nostro ecosistema globale, meritevoli non solo di ammirazione, ma anche di cura e attenzione.
